Some very slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners slightly rubbed, slight yellowing to extremities of largely white jacket, not price clipped (no published price), gift inscription in green ink to title page, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg++ copy. 444pp, lavishly illustrated, map endpapers. A huge, visually stunning and luxurious book. A memoir of Napoleon, largely compiled from the diaries of two men who knew the Emperor very well - his secretary Baron Claude Francois de Meneval, and his valet Constant Wairy. They provide detailed accounts of Napoleon's acts of state and military campaigns, his home life and daily routines, his physical ailments and personal obsessions, his love affairs and his relationship with Josephine. Author, historian, collector and publisher Proctor Patterson Jones (1916-99), had a lifelong fascination with France and its history, in particular the life of Napoleon. This book subsequently received the 1992 Literary Award of the Napoleonic Society. A massively heavy book, extra postage will be required.
